Wow! <smile> No, but it's interesting to read. You, Mrs. Downing, are the
research queen.

Does any of this apply?
Variations

Amateur music composer Thomas Oliphant (1799-1873)[6] noted in 1843 that:

This absurd old round is frequently brought to mind in the present day, from
the circumstance of there being an instrumental Quartet by Weiss, through
which runs a musical phrase accidentally the same as the notes applied to
the word Three Blind Mice. They form a third descending, C, B, A.[7]

Robert Schumann's Kreisleriana #7, which is arguably about a cat (Murr),
appears to be based upon "Three Blind Mice", but in a predominantly minor
key. "Three Blind Mice" is to be found in the fugue which is the centerpiece
of #7.]

Joseph Holbrooke (1878-1958) composed his Symphonic Variations, opus 37,
based on Three Blind Mice. Also, Joseph Haydn used its theme in the Finale
(4th Mvt) of his Symphony 83 (La Poule) (1785-86); one of the 6 Paris
Symphonies, and the music also appears in the final movement of English
composer Eric Coates' suite The Three Men. "Three Blind Mice" was also used
as a theme song for The Three Stooges and a Curtis Fuller arrangement of the
rhyme is featured on the Art Blakey live album of the same name. The song is
also the basis for Leroy Anderson's orchestral "Fiddle Faddle".

The theme of the second movement of Sergei Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No.
4 (1926, revised 1928 and 1941) is partially based on Three Blind Mice.[8]

published, but I have not been able to track it down. Thanks for your
advice.
